I sent the following letter to the company ; I need the CFPB 's assistance : XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX XXXX d/b/a XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, MT XXXX To Whom It May Concern : After doing research regarding Internet Tribal payday loan laws in the State of South Carolina, I have found that your Internet payday loans are actually illegal. I have been in contact with South Carolina State Department of Financial Institutions and they have verified that your company is not licensed in South Carolina, therefore the loan contracts I have had with XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX d/b/a XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX according to my state 's laws, are not enforceable. It has come to my attention that payday lenders must be licensed by the state of South Carolina in order to offer loans to its residents. Since your company has no license in my state, the loan contracts I have had with XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX d/b/a XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX are not valid. I have conducted hours of research and have consulted with authorities. The practice of online payday seeking affiliations with XXXX XXXX tribes in an effort to take advantage of the tribes special legal status as sovereign nations is abhorrent. This rent-a-tribe model is under scrutiny. Courts are cracking down on tribal lenders. The Consumer Financial Protection Bureau recently sued four online payday lenders in federal court for allegedly deceiving consumers and collecting debt that was not legally owed in many states. The complaint alleges violations of the Truth in Lending Act and the U.S. Consumer Financial Protection Act. It seeks restitution of money that borrowers paid involving illegal loans, plus penalties and a halt to the practices. While the lenders will likely claim that their loans are governed only by tribal law, not federal ( or state ) law, a federal court rejected similar arguments last year in a case brought by the FTC against lending companies. Tribal lenders have been found and identified in the Public Justice Report to be regularly making loans with interest rates well above state and federal regulations sometimes up to 700 percent. I have researched XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX d/b/a XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX and there are volumes of complaints against this tribal entity. XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX d/b/a XXXX XXXX XXXX , XXXX hides behind its tribal status to act in a predatory, harassing, and very nearly illegal manner. In my research, the repeated theme is the harassment, threats and predatory nature. Additionally, the extreme in fee charging which goes against the policies of many states. At this time I am requesting a return email acknowledging that my account is marked paid in full in good standing. I am also revoking authorization for ACH withdrawals. I have given a copy of these revocations to both my bank and my employer. Any future attempts to collect funds in this manner will be blocked. Please respond to this email with acknowledgment that my account has been satisfied in full. I demand that any contact be made through email only. I will need everything in writing to keep accurate records of all communication as per instruction from my Attorney General 's Office. I prohibit you or your affiliates to contact me via telephone at my place of employment or my home telephone number. I also prohibit you from calling my references listed on my loan. I must also inform you that I will be filing complaints with the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau, XXXX XXXX XXXX, the Federal Trade Commission, and Montana and South Carolinas Attorney General 's Office. I expect a response from your company no later than 1 day from the above date regarding this matter. This response may only come via email. No telephone or postal mail contact is permitted. Sincerely, XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX SC XXXX XXXX CC : Consumer Financial Protection Bureau Federal Trade Commission XXXX XXXX XXXX South Carolina State Attorney General Montana State Attorney General

I received a phone call from a phone number showing as XXXX on XXXX / XXXX / XXXX . A voice mail message was left stating that they were calling " regarding a formal complaint being filed '' against me and that if I had information in regards to the where abouts of this individual, to contact them immediately at XXXX a s the next step would be filing the necessary paperwork with the local county court. '' The same m essage was left on numerous family members voice mails. I called the number provided in the voice mail the same day and spoke with XXXX XXXX . He told me that they were in the process of charging me with bank fraud and that I had a last chance at restitution by paying {$650.00}. He said the debt was in regards to a payday loan advance. I told him that I had taken out XXXX loans in XXXX and all had been repaid. I told him that I was not going to pay another debt until I was provided written proof of the validity of the debt ( I have received no paperwork from this company in regards to this debt ). I told him that I was told the last time I received a phone call like this about a payday loan that I had paid, I was told that sometimes the debts are sold and the records are not updated accordingly. I told him I was not going to continually blindly pay these debtors without having proof of the debt. I also told him that I had been told previously that providing documentation in regards to the validity of the debt was not possible and that I could only obtain that kind of information in court. I also informed him that it was NOT ok to continually call my family members in regards to a debt that they claim belongs to me. He stated at that time th at GVA Holdings does not make any outgoing phone calls. I asked him who was making the phone calls. He stated that they hire a company to do that. I told him that they and GVA were violating the FDCPA. He said that GVA was not a debt collector. I asked him what he was attempting to do when speaking to me then? He said " provide a method of restitution. '' I said he was attempting to collect money from me to then in turn hand it to a creditor, thereby COLLECTING A DEBT. So they are basically trying to skirt any compliance with the law by hiring a company to make their collection calls. The conversation ended with me telling him that I would not pay the debt or even agree to the debt unless I was provided written proof of the validity of the debt. They continue to contact me and various family members continually to date. All I am asking for is 1. they stop harassing my family members ( and violating the law ) 2. proof of th e debt. This debt was incurred over 10 years ago!!!! I have paid several pay day loans to date. I will not continue to blindly pay these people simply because they call me and say I owe them money and continue to threaten and harass my family and I. They have, to date, failed to provide any written documentation in regards to the debt. I have not received a single letter from them.

I am currently paying on a loan from XXXX XXXX XXXX. I had unexpected expense. I reached out to them for a loan to pay some bills. I did use them in the past and paid off under flex pay which loan amount was divided up in a few payments and paid off the loan. Since the time I have gotten the loan I have been struggling to pay it off due to enormous interest rate and the length of the loan. Loan amount {$600.00} interest rate 529.28 % which is illegal in Georgia ( GA ) total payoff if goes full 20 payments a {$2600.00}. This loan started XX/XX/XXXX according to my bank records, I was paying {$130.00} Simi annual. I didn't realized I pay them 8 payments 2 a month to date {$1000.00} $ for a {$600.00} which I over paid them {$460.00} I would like back the difference I over paid XXXX XXXX XXXX, and I would like paid in full as agreed. The other day I called and requested a copy of my contract they give me information on the loan. However, I didn't see my signature on the contract. I spoke to a women that work for XXXX XXXX XXXX and I was shock to see that I over paid them over XXXX dollars. I asked her that I should have been on there flex pay which in the past my payments was broken out for short time and it was paid back. She told me that they were not doing it anymore. I never received any information about it. I asked her to send me copy of the XXXXXXXX XXXX policy change. she said she would send it. I never received it just email copy of contract with the money stated that I browed. " In the state of Georgia payday lending is prohibited. In fact, there is a ban on payday lenders restricting their operation in the territory of the state according to the Industrial loan act ( Ga. Code Ann . 7-3-14. Ga. Comp. R. & Regs. r. 80 3-1.02 ( 7 ) and O. C.G.A. Section 16-17-1 et seq. ). Payday loans go under a title of small loans, generally ; the minimal amount is { {$3000.00} }, according to the 16-17-2 of the Georgia Code. Certain businesses and companies have a legal right to give such loans but in terms that all their operations are regulated by the Credit Card and Credit Card Banking Act. All the lenders wishing to operate in the state should adhere to 16 % small loan rate cap APR ( and 10 % per year discounted plus fees ) as well as 60 % per year criminal usury cap. The Georgia Industrial Loan Act of 1955 essentially made payday lending illegal by requiring state licensing and registration and by imposing strict usury limits on small loans. In XXXX, the Georgia General Assembly increased the fines and criminal penalties for people making small loans at illegal rates of interest. The law went into effect in XX/XX/XXXX XXXX, and has survived challenges in federal court. Referred to as the Payday Lending Act of XXXX, this law authorizes misdemeanor charges against violators, as well as fines of up to { {$5000.00} } per violation and a possible jail sentence of 1 year ''

I requested debt validation via certified letter on XX/XX/2022. I gave 30 days notice for the company to respond and provide me with the information that I requested. I received no response. On XX/XX/2022, I received a phone call from a third party debt collection agency. The representative stated that this was an attempt to collect a debt on the behalf of the loan agency. I let the representative know that this account was in dispute, and that I was recording the conversation. The representative proceeded to hang up. I then sent a second letter of debt validation via certified mail on XX/XX/2022 requesting the same information from the third party debt collection company. I also gave this company the courtesy of a 30 day period to provide me in writing with validation of the alleged debt, a true bill of the alleged amount they say I owe them, and a completed corporate government employee questionnaire. In my letters for debt validation, I asked to be addressed only via mail in writing. The third party debt collection company completely ignored my request in my letter to not be contacted via email, phone, etc. Instead, I have received numerous emails from the third party collection company, which began on XX/XX/2022. The email sent to me on XX/XX/2022 stated that they had somehow finished processing my dispute, and that we have confirmed that you owe the ( alleged ) amount of {$680.00} '' with the original loan company. There was a link attached to this email that stated I could access my debt validation documentation here. The link took me to a screen that said We've verified that you owe this balance. The same page also stated that This concludes the dispute process.. There are 2 files on this screen, file 1 is very vague and only lists a principal amount, interest, fees, late charges, and a total balance. Nowhere on this screen does it indicate what this alleged debt is for, and to whom it is owed. Nowhere on this screen does it indicate that this debt belongs to me. This is not proof of VALIDATION of this alleged debt. The second file shows an alleged loan agreement, which does not satisfy my request for a TRUE BILL and validation of the alleged debt. The email sent to me on XX/XX/2022 states they are following up with the balance verification for my alleged account with the original loan company. I have received three more emails to the same effect, dated XX/XX/2022, XX/XX/2022, and most recently, XX/XX/2022. The third party debt collection company continues to ignore my requests, and the company has failed to provide me with validated debt that they claim I owe them. The third party debt collection company continues to harass me via email every week, and the company continues to provide inaccuracies, unverified, and invalidated debt to credit reporting.

I was looking up payday loan companies online and came across this payday loan website XXXX and they advised that i can get a payday loan in five minutes. I filled out a ll the info that was asked and was contacted via e-mail by Northern Plains Funding , LLC. Then was contacted by an agent that advised me that i was approved for {$300.00}. Went through the process of verifying all my info with the agent like my contact info, place of employment and my bank information by calling my bank on 3way with the agent on the phone asking my bank questions to verify that it was my bank account and in good standing. The agent then advise that she will be e-mailing me the agreement and the way that it was explained to me is that I can make pays of {$90.00} per pay period or i can just pay the loan off in full, but i was not made aware that i would have to pay {$2300.00} on a {$300.00} payday loan i understand that payday loans can have high interest but not that high I have done previous payday loans in the past and paid nowhere near {$2300.00} in interest. Once I got the money I looked over the loan in more detail and seen all the interest that was being charged. I then did some digging only to find out that this company do not have any business license in the state of California or in XXXX XXXX county for that matter. I spoke with a agent from DEPARTMENT OF BUSINESS OVERSIGHT and they also tried to look up this company only to find that this company is not licensed to do business in the state of California. I was also advised by the agent that this company is on a XXXX reservation doing buiness, agent then adivsed me that i will need to file a complaint through Federal Trade Comission sense this company is located on tribal land. I have only made one payment of {$90.00} so far to this company thru direct deposit which i sent a e-mail to the company advising them of Revocation of ACH credit and debit no later then XXXX XXXX. From my understanding per CALIFORNIA DEPARTMENT OF BUSINESS OVERSIGHT website maximum fee a payday lender can charge is 15 % ofthe face amount of the check ( up to a maximum of {$45.00} ). but this company is charging me well over 15 % and well over the maximum of {$45.00}. This loan has a Annual percentage rate XXXX % .This loan is from XXXX/XXXX/XXXX to XXXX/XXXX/XXXX. And also per CALIFORNIA DEPARTMENT OF BUSINESS OVERSIGHT The lender does not cash the check until the borrower 's next payday, up to 31 days. This lender has clearly went over the 31 days allowed until my next payday the lender is requseting that i make 24 payments of XXXX and the last payment of XXXX. This lender is advises that all the payments will be applied first to the finance charges and fees {$2000.00} then to the principal.

On XX/XX/XXXX, I contacted Bright Lending to verify through a three-way call to my financial institution that my loan had posted and paid in full. The agent ( XXXX ) noted the account and proceeded to update my account at Bright Lending so that I may take out a new loan. ( This would be my fifth loan as I have paid in full, four previous loans since XX/XX/XXXX ). I was told to proceed online and call them if I had any questions or issues. Upon submitting " Complete My Application '' I was given a screen result of : Please email your Driver Licence, State ID or Passport and email to support@brightlending.com '' before being able to move forward with the application. I called Bright Lending ( BL ) once again and was told by a Supervisor that [ due to the coronavirus, we are asking for this form of ID in order to proceed with our returning customers ]. I asked what the privacy disclosures were given that the prior agent that I spoke to did not disclose this information neither is it expressly stated on your website. I also asked : How can you assure me of my identity being safeguarded if you have agents that are working remotely from home? The response was [ Your email gets sent to a department within their " tribal facility '' .... somewhere of which I was not made aware through an Agent 's Name/Supervisor or direct phone number extension. Thirdly, I asked : Do you use encryption methods on your email or site for that matter that will safeguard my identity? I was not given any further details other than I do not know and I would have to further ask another department/supervisor for this information. [ sic ] Now, the danger of this deceptive practice is : The customer is giving consent to not being assured that their identity is not being viewed by others, disseminated for unwanted third-party telemarketing or selling of your information and most importantly, that your information is being harvested by any employees and affiliates on the internet. I was told that my ID can stay on their records for 5-7 years. I believe Bright Lending is engaging in illegal business practices that are not being told/informed in a Truthful manner. There is a very fine print in which they state they do not guarantee that your privacy is completely private. However, not stating nor informing their so-called Covid-related business practice has to be a violation of my privacy and consumer rights. At XXXX XXXX XX/XX/XXXX PST, I have finally received an email from BL, that my application for a loan has been withdrawn. However, I still believe this business engages in deceitful business practice at the expense of one 's personal and confidential identity.

North Star Finance sent me a couple of letters in the mail stating I was eligible for a loan modification on a home I own in Florida. I contacted them to see what it was all about. I am XXXX XXXX XXXX and have a high interest rate on my home loan. I had been wanting to find out what I could do to get a lower interest rate. They explained their process and I trusted them ... .that turned out to be a huge mistake. Over the next several weeks I filled out everything they required, and supplied them with all of their requested information. They explained to me they would have my mortgage loan modified within 3 months and my interest rate would be reduced to the current average rates. They then required a {$6000.00} payment for the closing of the loan modification. I sent them the money. Shortly after that, they explained they need another {$1500.00} to complete the loan documents. I sent them the additional {$1500.00}. That was over 6 months ago. Over the next few months I heard very little from them. I tried and tried to get a hold of them. I did receive a couple more letters, which made it look like they were actually working on it. I later learned that nothing was actually being done, and their documents are all bogus. The last communication I had with them, they were demanding an additional {$1200.00} payment. I told them I was not going to give them anymore money. My daughter has been trying to help, and she has been in contact with them. She requested they give me back {$6000.00} of the total {$7500.00}. They deposited a check into her account for {$7500.00}. They wanted her to give them back {$1500.00}. She told them she would once the check gets funded from their bank. Well, 3 days after the check was deposited it bounced. We were n't that surprised. I have a copy of the check. I believe they are making false checks with someone else 's information on them. The name and address on the check is from an older gentlemen that lives in XXXX . I believe he has no idea what these guys are doing. The check bounced abo ut 3 weeks ago. Since then my daughter has talked to them a couple of times. They claimed they would send a money order, but that was over 2 weeks ago. They now wo n't return my daughter 's calls. I am concerned they are scamming people all over. They must be stopped. Any help or assistance you can give would be greatly appreciated. Thank you for your time.

Dear Mr. or Ms . I made the mistake of taking a loan out with this company, I was approved for a {$600.00}. I was told online that there would be a smaller finance charge, steep, but I agreed. What I did not know, and could not see at the time I accepted this agreement, was that the Truth in Lending disclosure not visible at the time I accepted this loan showed an APR of, and this is not a typo either, 649.9988 % and that the total repayment amount for my {$600.00} loan would be a whopping {$3400.00} I had not been informed of the 650 % interest rate on the loan, and I was told there would be a {$350.00} finance charge, not {$3400.00} in total payments, and I was unable to view the " Truth in Lending '' disclosure until after the loan had been processed and funds delivered to my account. To this date I have paid {$560.00} ( in only 7 weeks ) for the {$600.00} loan. I was also told this would be bi-weekly payments and not weekly. I feel like I was totally mis-lead about how much this little loan would cost me. I am willing to pay this off with a reasonable amount of interest. Thank you for your time. I did not realize this was such a scam or I would have never accepted this. They sent me an email stating that I now owe them : XXXX wrote : XX/XX/2019 XXXX AM To You XXXX XXXX, Thank you for your email. Our records show your account is fully past due in the amount of {$1300.00}. There are currently no payment arrangements for your account. We are able to divide this balance into 7 smaller payments of {$180.00} to assist you in your efforts of paying your loan in full. Thank you for choosing XXXX XXXX XXXX.

Hi my name is XXXX XXXX and the company Im filing a complaint on is Bright Lending XXXX. XXXX XXXX XXXX, MT XXXX XXXX On or around XX/XX/XXXX I borrowed {$500.00} from a loan company called Bright Lending. It was a fast arrangement and the gentleman seemed very helpful and zipped me right through. I let him know that I did XXXX XXXX part time and could steadily pay back the loan every time I was I had parts of the payment and certainly within a year. I gave him my bank info to make the deposit and electronically signed my name. Later that evening I discover the interest would be like {$2500.00}! And then last week they drafted my bank account, which put it in the negative, and now Ill have late fees of {$35.00} every week from my bank. I just had XXXX on XX/XX/XXXX and was counting on receiving a payment reminder or something ... .I couldnt believe they drafted my account. I called Brightlending yesterday XX/XX/XXXX to have the drafts stopped so I could afford to pay them back. I got a flat refusal. After I hung up the phone, about an hour later I received a payment reminder via email ... a little too late. My bank cant stop the automatic draft and Bright Lending will not. I was struggling which is why I desperately contacted a loan place. There was no mention that my bank would be drafted. They didnt even ask for a pay stub from me. Which I dont have one because Ive been ill the past 3 years and havent worked. I am hoping you can point me in the right direction. I want to pay back the money, of course, but not the astounding interest fee. And Ill never be able to pay it back with my bank account being in the negative and the weekly {$35.00} overdraft charge on top of it. I was completely misled about the drafts. This is terrible. I cant afford the ridiculous interest not the bank draft charges every week. And I can not access the My Account on their website to attach the interest rate they threw on me. Its like this company takes the money from the bank and there isnt even any money in my account! So now I owe the bank! Thank you, XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, SC XXXX XXXX

I applied for a loan, the company called my bank with me on the line and verified my information. I was told that the I was approved and that the money would be deposited into in two business days. at that time I was offered to received the loan in one day by paying an additional {$12.00} fee. On the day the money was supposed to be deposited in my account. I received a call from the company saying they needed a different work number. I had provided them with my supervisors number. They called after the wire cut off and there was no way to get me the money in addition they had been given the only number to verify my employment. I spoke to my supervisor this week. He was intending to discipline me because I broke security procedure and gave out the phone number. I corrected him and told him I had applied for a loan. He said the person who called him did not present themselves as a professional and he thought it was a customer. He said had they been able to communicate properly he would have verified my employment. I took a loan out to buy a luxury I did not have the money to buy. The company had me sign the loan document and said it was done. They did not keep their promise, as a result I have suffered overdraft fees and I want them paid. The company called me the next day after the day I was suppose to get my loan they wanted a different number. The damage had been done I told them I wanted nothing to do with them. Why would I go through this process a gain. Because the people doing the verifying are not American and obviously do not understand how to communicate when calling and asking for sensitive information. they were not able to verify. I have suffered do to the incompetence of this company 's employee and I feel they should pay my overdraft fees incurred do to their inadequacy. No I do n't want a loan from them. I want reimbursement of the fees they caused me with their lies. If my loan was not complete, they should have said so. I signed a promissory agreement and was told my money would be deposited on that day not it may be deposited. It was suppose to be a done deal.

On XX/XX/2022 at about XXXX I clicked a link on my phone that said to get " money instantly '' when applying. I had no idea what site this was from but it was matching me to a bunch of different vendors to see who could assist me. I clicked through one creditor that could offer {$800.00}. I was clicking through the pages and entering my data when I clicked to " agree '' I was brought to a page that said I would be paying an APR of 699.9856 % with finance charges of {$3600.00} for an {$800.00} quick loan. I panicked and wanted to immediately refuse the deposit, however my husband convinced me to keep the loan as we needed the cash for rent and that we could pay off the loan way before paying thousands of dollars on it. At the time I didn't even realize this was a payday loan. I never even visited this lender 's site. Now after visiting their site and seeing their privacy policy of : " Aaniiih Nakoda Finance , LLC DBA Bright Lending is an entity formed under the laws of the XXXX XXXX XXXX Community of the XXXX XXXX XXXX of Montana ( the XXXX ), a federally-recognized and sovereign American XXXX XXXX. Bright Lending is wholly-owned by the XXXX. Bright Lending is a licensed lender authorized by the XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX. '' They don't even sound like a legitimate business company. Today, I called and revoked my ACH authorization after I have already paid this company more than what I borrowed. I have paid them {$1200.00} from an {$800.00} loan. I asked them to please close this account and cancel this debt as I would be contacting my attorney and filing suit against them. I have a XXXX daughter and a husband and rent my home. We live paycheck to paycheck with no savings and very little money in the bank. I need assistance in closing this account and I am not against helping others who are also in my situation get justice from companies like Bright Lending who think it's ok to make a customer pay them {$4400.00} from a {$800.00} loan. Thank you for your time. I have my loan agreement attached for you to browse and share with anyone needed.

There is a company that I requested a loan from before, after they did deposit money into my account I realized hw high their apr was and paid them in full right the way and stopped business with them. However, just 3 months after on XXXX/2022, that company did deposit funds in my account I think ( I do not look at my account on a daily basis, I am busy and don't have to look when I Know that I am not applying for anything ), after that they started taking money from my account on a 1 week sometimes two weeks basis making it a total of almost {$4000.00} now, putting me in trouble and issues while I am busy taking care of my sick dependent. This means that they used my personal information, including my social to do request something I never authorized. I filed a dispute with my bank but they weren't able to help. so I filed a police report and identity theft. I was promised by the company that they will refund my money, but last time I spoke to them they said that they can only refund money from after the police report. I am planning on suing, but prefer resolving this in a smart manner instead cause I have no time for this. I need my money back including the damaged it caused to my credit report, bank account, delays in purchasing what was important for the house including food on our table. I emailed them 5 times with no response, I called them maybe 6 times, every time they say someone ( a supervisor ) will call me back, no one ever did, and every time I call back the representative says that the previous representative requested that someone calls you but the call was never made. ESPECIALLY TIME! MY TIME IS PRECIOUS AND WAS WASTED The company is XXXX XXXX. Address : XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, MT XXXX customer service : XXXX Resolution : credit report repair ( loan opened without my authorization ) my money refunded {$500.00} waste of time, energy, health, money, nd credit damage. If to go through court, resolution will probably be XXXX XXXX as this is fraud and personal damage and financial impact during crisis

On XX/XX/XXXX I received an email from Bright Lending telling me my loan had been approved. I had not applied for any loan. My house recently burned down and I am currently trying to purchase a home and was told not to open any new accounts. I opened the email on XX/XX/XXXX and went to the website which had electronic signature information dated XX/XX/XXXX with an IP address out of XXXX AZ, I am located in WA state. I then emailed the company letting them know I had not participated in this at all as it was too late to call them. On XX/XX/XXXX I called first thing and they were very helpful and canceled the loan. She said that if the funds did transfer into my account they would be removed within a couple of days and would receive a cancelation email. I never received an email and {$1000.00} showed up in my account that day. I waited 3 business days and called again and was told it would take 3-5 days and my loan was officially canceled XX/XX/XXXX. I asked again for an email and did receive it timely. Today XX/XX/XXXX I chatted with someone online because the money had not been removed. I was told they would have someone call me but couldn't say when so I called myself. I was told that for them to remove the funds I had to complete an affidavit at indentitytheft.gov, take the affidavit and file a police report and then fax the police report to them to have the funds removed. WHO OWNS A FAX?! I was also told that my information was received from a third partY site XXXX. This loan was approved automatically they never contacted me to verify it was a valid request. I feel like this is predatory I did not and would not apply for a loan with a 699 % interest rate and they are making it extremely hard to return the funds. I now have to change my checking account information because I'm afraid they are going to start taking payments out. I've also frozen my credit hoping that something like this doesn't happen again.

I was contacted by Target Cash Now on XX/XX/2021 and informed they were trying to collect on a debt for a loan that was taken out on XX/XX/2021 by someone using my information. At first I thought they were trying to scam me but when they provided me with information about the loan, I realized they had my name, my last 4 digits of my social security number, my place of work, my telephone number and a portion of my address. They did not have my full address and the banking information they provided is not a bank that I have an account with. Target Cash Now informed me that I would have to file a police report since as far as they were concerned the account was in my name and it would affect my credit rating. I did contact the XXXX XXXX Police department and I have a XXXX Police Department Citizen/Police Contact Receipt ( XXXX ) also dated for XX/XX/2021. I did not share this information with Target Cash Now because it has my drivers license information and my correct address and I did not want to provide them this information. Instead I reached out to the Maryland States Attorneys office for advice and guidance. I was advised by Mr XXXX XXXX, XXXX Identity Theft Program, Office of the Attorney General to file a complaint with this organization and to freeze my credit. The following is the rest of the information that Target Cash Now provided me on this loan that I am disputing * funds deposited into XXXX XXXX account ending in XXXX XXXX Loan ID XXXX XXXX Of interest to me is that I never received any loan documents or information on this account/loan even in my SPAM/Junk mail prior to the disbursement of the funds. But I have received numerous requests in my spam that are reminders about the payments that are due on the account. I would appreciate any assistance you can give me to get this situation resolved.

On XX/XX/2019 I applied for and was funded a {$300.00} installment loan. The loan came with an astronomical interest rate. I have been making the payments weekly via electronic debit of my bank account with the exception of one week my check came in late and they charged me a fee for missed payment. I am caught up but for that fee. I contacted them a few months back because I was unable to register for login on their website. I wanted to view and print my terms again and see about an early payoff maybe or rearranging dateas, etc. I just needed to be able to view my account online. I was told that I was unable to regiatwr with the site because of the very small past due fee..my bank covered it and they got their payment a day late..but the fee stayed. They would not in any way shape or form allow me to register online unless I paid that overdue. I argued for it to be added at the end as an extra payment, paid off in increments..anything and evwrything I could think of. Its been nearly 6 months and I still am unable to gain access. I can not get them to tell me my balance or anything. I gave up until recently. I want to switch my payments to my other bank account and need to be able to access the site to do so ... as thwy told me in emails they can not take or change payment information. Is there anything you can do to help me get into my account? I think it is my right as a consumer to be able to view my own loan information isnt it? Also, they are a tribal lender i believe so I dont think theres much anyone can do about them taking complete advantage of my desperation with those interest rates ... but maybe could look into it? It screams unfair business practice to me. Thanks so very much and Ill await your reply XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX

On Sunday, XX/XX/2021, I received an email from XXXX stating that my {$1500.00} loan had been approved. Within 3 minutes, I received a communication from XXXX stating that my personal information had been used to secure a short-term loan. I reported to XXXX that I did not apply for any such loan. I opened Case # XXXX with XXXX and then called TargetCashNow at the number provided in the email they sent me : XXXX. I spoke with a representative and learned that someone online used my date of birth, email address, and social security number to secure a {$1500.00} loan and is having the money sent out of the country. I tried to explain that this was fraud. The agent told me I needed to file a police report. I told her I have XXXX and they would handle it. Today, XX/XX/2021, I received an email from TargetCashNow demanding payment of {$260.00} by XX/XX/2021, or I would be assessed an additional fee. I called XXXX and together we called and spoke with a representative at Targetcashnow.com named XXXX. XXXX told me I MUST secure a police report for his company as it is the policy at their company. He told me that they did not issue the money to the person who applied in my name. I asked him why they are demanding payment from me and he could not answer me. He told me that the only way to resolve the matter was to secure an official report from law enforcement. I believe this is not my problem. I asked for compensation from TargetCashNow for my lost time from work and miledgae but was not offered anything other than if I wanted to fix this so it is not my responsibility, this is what I had to do. I would like this matter investigated as this company is violating my rights under FERPA. Thank you.

Received an email on XX/XX/XXXX stating that I was approved for a {$400.00} loan and that my first payment was due on XX/XX/XXXX. I immediately called the company from the email by the name of XXXX XXXX and spoke to a lady customer service rep and explained to her that, I did not apply for a loan from this company ever and asked what personal information of mine they had on file. She did give me my correct information but all the information was very old. The employer they had listed, I havent work there since XXXX and the address they have on file, I moved from in XXXX. The phone numbers are very old and has not been in service for like 4 years. The bank account that was on file has been closed for about 4 years also. I explained to her that someone has to be using my old information. She stated that she would speak with her supervisor and request payment to be stop from going into that old bank account. On XXXX/XXXX/2017 I received another email stating that my payment was returned by my bank for non sufficient funds ( even though the first email said payment due by the XXXX ). I called once again and this time the lady stated they were working to resolve this matter and I have not recieved a response about the outcome. As of today I went to their website to see if that account was closed but its still showing active with late fees. This is fraud and stealing off my personal information they probably bought from an old company. The IP address XXXX XXXX showing at the time the loan was accepted does not match my IP address.

I, XXXX XXXX, applied online to a group of companies offering personal loans. I was under the impression that I was dealing with companies registered in the United States in a particular state ( Montana in this case ). It is believed that Bright Lending is charging approximately 685 % annual interest on a {$300.00} dollar loan with weekly installments of {$40.00} dollars. Three payments have been made with approximately 5 principal payments made between installment dates. Approximately {$150.00} to {$160.00} dollars up to this point has been made. Bright Lending is refusing to apply the additional payments towards principal payments. After further investigation, Bright Lending is believed to be breaking the law by charging annual rates above the State of Montana and the District of Columbia 's " Cap Interest Rates. '' The State of Montana does not have Bright Lending or any of it's affiliates listed as registered businesses. Bright Lending is believed to be working from an " off-shore haven '' ( XXXX ) where the site is listed as being hosted via a XXXX Search. Additionally a traceroute of the IP address indicates off-shore computer servers. My goals were to pay off the loan as quickly as possible within the District of Columbia 's Cap Rate of 24 %. It is believed that Bright Lending is a bogus site being operated by some third party refusing to be registered as a corporation in the US. It is believed that my phones were rerouted by Bright Lending in order to put me in a compromising situation relative to the loan.

On XX/XX/XXXX, out of desperation, I foolishly turned to a predatory payday loan lender. I borrowed {$500.00} and did not fully understand the ramifications. I made my first payment on XX/XX/XXXX in the amount of {$130.00}. Despite having paid {$130.00}, my online account shows I still owe {$560.00} on a {$500.00} loan. This is outrageous! If I pay another {$560.00}, I will end up paying {$700.00} on a {$500.00} loan. That is {$200.00} in interest. 40 % interest!!!!! This is predatory and greedy. There is no where on the website to view any loan documents which is deceitful and misleading. This must be illegal!!!!! Since I have paid {$130.00} on a {$500.00} loan, my balance due without interest is {$360.00}. In South Carolina, payday loans can only charge {$15.00} per {$75.00} borrowed. Since that is my state of residence, I should only have to pay {$75.00} in fees. I should have a balance remaining of {$430.00} NOT {$560.00}. Since XXXX XXXX XXXX has not been transparent in its information and is a greedy, predatory payday loan lender, I now want to reach a settlement to pay off the {$430.00}. I will pay the following : {$50.00} paid on XX/XX/XXXX {$50.00} paid on XX/XX/XXXX {$50.00} paid on XX/XX/XXXX {$50.00} paid on XX/XX/XXXX {$50.00} paid on XX/XX/XXXX {$50.00} paid on XX/XX/XXXX {$50.00} paid on XX/XX/XXXX {$50.00} paid on XX/XX/XXXX {$39.00} on XX/XX/XXXX I will make my payments via check mailed to XXXX XXXX XXXX. I have revoked XXXX 's authority to automatically take money from my checking account.

I borrowed {$700.00} on XXXX from a company called North Cash and I knew that it would be an expensive loan if I did n't pay it off early. The representative even stated that if I were to pay the loan off early I would save significantly on finance charges. The finance charges that I am being charged are {$190.00} every two weeks. I called in early XXXX to get my pay off balance and was told at that point that the payoff amount would be over {$800.00} ( ca n't remember the exact amount ). I was confused because at this point I had already paid over {$900.00} towards the loan and I could n't understand why the balance was more that the amount I borrowed.I had a family emergency that came up around that time so I was n't in a head space to follow up on that conversation. I have paid {$190.00} every two weeks since XXXX and when I called to get the pay off balance on XXXX I was told that I would have to pay over {$900.00} to pay the loan off. When I asked how that was possible the representative told me that I still would be responsible the remaining interest on the loan and I just do n't understand! When I crunch the numbers what she told me is incorrect about owing the remaining interest because the amount would be much more, but I also do n't understand how she came up with the amount that she gave to me. I 've worked very hard to get my credit back up to the mid XXXX 's so I do n't want to do anything that will cause a blemish, but it just seems like this is n't legal what North Cash is doing.

I contacted this company to see what help they were providing customers like myself during this pandemic. The best they would do is place one payment at the end of my payday loan, which is no different from what they would do as one-time courtesy outside of this worldwide pandemic. I told the representative that I was unable to keep up with these payments. The representative offered no help. The representative went on to say that missed payments would be subject to the terms and agreements documented in the contract. In speaking with a friend about it and describing the loan I was in, the person informed me that payday loans are illegal in Massachusetts given the high interest rate that exceeds the lending requirements of the state. I was also informed that this loan falls under predatory lending and violates Massachusetts law. I went to the Massachusetts website to obtain more information. The website did have information stating payday loans being illegal in Massachusetts. The original loan amount was XXXX dollars. The company is withdrawing more than XXXX dollars out of my checking account every two weeks. The interest rate on this loan is 789.97 % and I'm paying more than XXXX dollars per month, most of which is interest. When I took out this loan, I did not realize how high this interest would be. In the end, I will pay more than XXXX dollars for a XXXX dollar loan. I've already paid the original loan amount back with interest. I can not keep up with these payments. What are my options?

I took out a loan of {$1200.00} in early XXXX with Target Cash Now. Actually, they took out a {$75.00} processing fee and {$1000.00} was direct depoisited into my checking account. The interest rate was over 700 %. They started taking payments every two weeks out of my account. Each payment was {$380.00} every two weeks. I then realized just how bad this loan was as the principal was paid back just after 6 weeks. I paid them about {$2000.00} in payments and started to have trouble making the payments. I am a senior citizen and a veteran and I started reaching out to TCN to try and get a settlement I could afford. Over four weeks I spoke with different people at TCN some acted like they would work something out with me and some had the attituded of a loan shark and were mean. I made an offer to pay them {$800.00} in two installments. {$400.00} the third Thursday of the month when my Social Security is deposited. for ten days is was told the people at the top had not yet approved my offer. Yesterday, I called and a rude man told me they had sold my loan to a collection agency. I was very upset and asked to speak to the CEO. The man told me he didn't know who the CEO was. That of course was a lie.I found out from the XXXX website that their CEO is Ms. XXXX XXXX and a XXXX XXXX is their Compliance Manager. XXXX is owned by the XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX I believe from Montana. Since this COVID 19 virus has come upon us, paying this has become even more difficult for us. Can you please help me?

I received a payday/installment loan from XXXX XXXX XXXX around XX/XX/2018 in the amount of {$500.00} ; which was instantly deposited into my checking account. At the time the loan was made- I was unable to fully and completely review The Truth in Lending Disclosures. To this date- I am still unable to access my account and view any of that information. As of todays date ; I have made the following bi-weekly payments of {$100.00} ; all of these payments have gone towards the astronomic interest that is being charged and nothing towards the principal. To date I have made the following payments : XX/XX/XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX, and XX/XX/XXXX- totaling more than {$860.00} being paid for an initial loan of {$500.00}. I am unable to continue making these payments and have tried to contact the company to discuss other arrangements ; to no avail. The only response I have received from the company is being told that payments will continue to be drafted from my account and interest will be accumulating on a daily basis. This predatory loan is not only unethical but illegal in the state of Georgia. The interest amount being charged is well over 400 %. Chapter XXXX of Title XXXX of the Georgia Code is commonly referred to as the Payday Lending Act, even though it applies to installment loans as well- this code states any loans of {$3000.00} or less made to Georgia borrowers at interest rates that exceed eight percent ( 8 % ).

I contacted the company today regarding the loan. I have been paying XXXX twice a month since XX/XX/XXXX. I attempted to log on to my account to check the balance and review my contract. I am aware of the high interest rate of the loan but felt I had payed too much for the loan. When I tried to logon to my account access was denied. I emailed the company regarding this matter today and was advised I owed 2 more payments due on XX/XX/XXXX. One for a missed payment which I was unaware of any missed payments. I was told account information was not available at this time online. I was advised by email when I opened the account that I would have access at all times to this information. I requested a copy of my contract today Im the email and no response was given to this request. If they can not provide me a copy of my contract or interest I have been charged then how can this be a legal contract. I realize part is my fault for being desperate and dumb at the time. I printed a copy of the contact at the time but have moved since then and had misplaced it. They identify themselves on their website as a tribal lender in Montana. I am not sure exactly how much the loan was for again at the time I was desperate. I feel that withholding documents is not legal and I should be reimbursed the interest I have paid them at the very least. Now I am not even sure this was a legal lender.

I borrowed {$500.00} from Bright Lending ( brightlending.com ) for a family emergency on XX/XX/XXXX. With the understanding some of the payment will be toward principal. I tried to log in to the account on XX/XX/XXXX to see how my payment is being applied and to obtain a copy of the contract. However, once I went into the account, I could not find any of my information. The portal will only allow me to request another loan. I called the same to day to retrieve my contract. I was told I could get the information from the portal. After several more attempts I was unable to obtain the information. I called once again and requested to have the contract emailed to me. However, this never occurred. I continued to pay the loan from XX/XX/XXXX through XX/XX/XXXX in the amount of {$150.00}. I called on XX/XX/XXXX to pay off the loan and was told I owe more than the {$500.00}. When asked why wasn't any of my payments applied to principal, the supervisor XXXX advised only some of my payments will only be paid to principal. I also asked her which payments would be applied as that was not specified in the contract, she stated it doesn't matter which payments. She also stated she could not pull up my contract at that time ( which also made no sense to me ). She said she would said me another contract after the call. I have not received the contract.

I spoke with the company today and inquired about paying off my loan. I have received loans from this company for over two years so I am aware of how expensive they are. On several occasions when I have called to do an early payoff the representative has offered to waive the finance charge for the pay off. I always call prior to the due date of my loan. That was not the case this time. I had taken out a loan for {$800.00}. I have already made one successful payment on time on XX/XX/2018. I spoke to the manager and the rep who informed me that my pay off would be {$980.00} if I pay on the first. The manager stated that they are able to do so if several payments have been made. So basically after they have gotten more than enough money from you they will work with you. If I was able to make a payment today the manager offered me a discount and said my pay off would be {$750.00}. I also tried to inquire what the actual fee was for XXXX. The rep only told me there is an 485 % apr. Which i am aware of but that is not what I was asking. I referenced their website which shows an example for {$300.00} that payback is XXXX. I feel that there practice is criminal. Especially since I was asking for something that they have been able to do before. There are so many people that get these loans and don't pay them back. I am not one of those people.

i took out a {$400.00} loan in XX/XX/2017 and have made {$120.00} payments on time biweekly since that time. XXXX weeks ago I contacted the company inquiring how to pay down the loan and was informed that any additional payments made at the same time as the original payment would be applied to the principal. I have been paying {$120.00} plus an additional {$200.00} for the last to payments and to date only {$37.00} has been applied to the principal. The company states that they have no way to apply the additional payments to the principal therefore they apply the entire payment of {$120.00} to interest and XXXX to principal from the additional {$200.00}. To date I still owe {$810.00} from a {$400.00} loan the principal has been reduced less than {$40.00}. The interest is 699 %. It would seem that if the entire original payment is applied to interest then there is nothing but principal remaining for the additional payment to be applied to. It is also contrary to what I was informed the process would be. I would not voluntarily pay additional money for additional interest payments. As of now I am paying {$120.00} plus an additional {$200.00} per payment for XXXX in total to be applied to the original loan amount of {$400.00}. I have been informed that I will pay the loan off earlier than anticipated in XXXX if I keep this rate up. Wow!

I haven't taken out an loan out from Bright Lending because it seems to me after reading over the lender Loan Agreement And Disclosure Statement it seems to be unpractical and more towards predatory lending. I was taking out a loan for only {$800.00} but their Annual Percentage rate was set at 674.9888 %. Finance Charge {$2900.00} with a total payments of {$3700.00}. I thought that was a little much so I called and asked to speak with someone about the Loan Agreement. My question was why didn't the Loan Disclose a early pay off and NO ONE could answer my question or could tell me anything about an early pay off option and what that would be. I asked was it 5 -10 pay off but got no answer accept that it depends. My question was depends on what? They kept putting me on hold to fine out but could never give me a straight answer at all. So I said you could put all these unreasonable finance charges {$3700.00} for a {$800.00} dollar loan but you cant tell me anything about early payoff for just the {$800.00} without all these fees. I don't know the law but in my heart I truly feel this is a Predatory Lending Company and they need to be closed down. Its company like this that destroying peoples lives and future. Please look into this! I can provide you a copy of the Loan AgreemenXXXX Thanks XXXX XXXX XXXX

I have had an account there since XX/XX/XXXX. I received a loan of $XXXX. I have made every one of the biweekly $XXXX payments since. I started calling onXX/XX/XXXX to find out the payoff balance. The representative told me there were technical issues keeping her from getting in to my account. (Something I later learned is a common tactic they use.) So, I called back on XX/XX/XXXX and spoke to the same girl. She told me she still couldn't get in to my account and promised that interest would stop accruing while we got this sorted.  She told me the balance would be emailed to me or I would get a call. I received neither, but two more payments have been debited from my account in the total of $XXXX. I spoke to a representative on XX/XX/XXXX who advised me that the pay off is $XXXX. Since I have been trying to settle this since XX/XX/XXXX, I told her I need the $XXXX that was debited after to be applied to this balance and allow me to pay the difference of $XXXX to close the account. She said her supervisor would call me back. I heard nothing. I emailed their customer service with this issue. No response. I called again on XX/XX/XXXX. The same girl assured me the supervisor would call me that day. No call. I have since called and left voicemails and sent another email. Still no response.

I have told at least 3 representatives from Bright Lending in the past that this telephone number does not belong to XXXX XXXX. It is a cell phone belonging to his former employer, XXXX XXXX. Each representative states that they will remove my business cell phone number from their database. Yet .... Since Monday, my cell phone records show the following calls that I ignored : Monday, XX/XX/2021 at XXXX from XXXX Monday, XX/XX/2021 at XXXX from XXXX Tuesday, XX/XX/2021 at XXXX from XXXX Wednesday, XX/XX/2021 at XXXX from XXXX Thursday, XX/XX/2021 at XXXX from XXXX Thursday, XX/XX/2021 at XXXX from XXXX On Friday, XX/XX/2021 at XXXX, I picked up the phone and spoke to XXXX who RUDLY INSISTED that Bright Lending has never called XXXX before. She refused to take me out of their database altogether as I requested, instead she said she will put me on their " do not call '' list which they will sell and cause further harassment. When they call they insist very rudely to talk with XXXX XXXX, when I tell them they have the wrong number, they refuse to hang up, they continue to ask as though I am trying to hide him. If I get another call from them or an associated company, I want compensation per call. I am tired of them interrupting business meetings and my work day.

I took out a short term payday loan with this company. I did not realize they had no recourse for early payoff and would make me pay a total of 20 payments in the amount of XXXX. I borrowed only {$650.00}. When my paydate came at an incovienent time, I tried to resolve it by asking for a 4 day extension of my payment. To this date I have make 5 payments of {$190.00}. I was told I could skip one payment but they did not tell me until it was too late and loan payment was being processed through my bank. The payment was returned and I had already explained that would be the case and I could not control it. So far I have paid over {$960.00}. I understand they need to make money, but the fees are exorbitant and present a hardship for me. It is my error, but I also have never encountered a situation where there was no reduction in payment for early payoff. I am happy to pay what I borrowed, but I don't think paying over {$3000.00} makes complete sense. At this point they are saying I still owe over {$2900.00}. I am not naive to payday loans, and its not always the best use of my money, but it was a circumstance that I needed to borrow the funds. Is there any recourse for this situation that can help to mitigate these high charges.

The man that answered when he transferred me asked if I was recording the call and I said yes. He then said he couldn't give me any other information and hung up on me. I called Target Cash Now and spoke to someone in their collections department and he said the only company they use for third party collection was XXXX XXXX. These people need to be stopped!!!

I tried to contact XXXX XXXX XXXX on XXXX XXXX and XXXX XXXX to pay off the principle of XXXX, which I have already paid XXXX in interest. They told me their systems were down and unable to adjust my account. I called back and pretended to open a new loan and they had no problem with their systems and wanted to set me up. I called again on XXXX XXXX and after half hour on hold finally demanded a supervisor. Her name was XXXX. She would n't give a last name, just employee number XXXX. She said there was nothing she could do, she would contact me in 24 hrs with payoff amount, but she never did. I have some emails and some written documentation of my attempts to contact.

I had issues with a credit report that was different from the reports I have access to. Credit reports are being withheld and the numbers used aren't being shares with consumers who need to know exactly where they stand before applying for credit and further damaging their sensitive information. My credit score with XXXX had never been under XXXX for the last 24 months and when I applied for a rehab loan it was reported I had a XXXX. I was told by the company there's 20 different reports, I was sent a credit report directly from XXXX and the report was even higher at XXXX. Then once I requested information and later applied for credit the score dropped XXXX points to XXXX. Then I later was refinancing the same home that I was trying to get a rehab loan on and was told XXXX had my score at XXXX. In these months credit score has been all over the place and when logging on to XXXX XXXX I discovered several erroneous findings showing {$90000.00} debt and collections which I don't even have. Somehow its seems retaliatory or vindictive to have my scores assaulted and manipulated to further my business and financial demise since lending and credit is a huge part of advancement and it's unfair and unjust.

I was contacted by XXXX XXXX XXXX ( sp? ) on XXXX/XXXX/XXXX, regarding an online payday loan that they say i owe for, through a company called River Bend Cash. River Bend Cash has been trying to collect on a payday loan I did not authorize from XXXX or XXXX. I had a rash of online payday loans, XXXX total, that were laudered through my previous bank account. After my bank did their own investigation, they determined that there were XXXX loans deposited into my account over the span of 6 days, only to be withdrawn within 30 to 45 minutes of each deposit clearing. My bank was unable to determine how the deposits were withdrawn as there was no further electronic information. Due to my bank not being able to track where the deposits were moved to, my local authorities told me I did n't have sufficient information to file a police report for fraud and they recommended I shut down the account and move to another bank to avoid any further financial difficulties. XXXX XXXX XXXX is apparently the collection agency for this debt and have informed me that I am to be served with paperwork at my residence or work place. I have yet to see anyone show up at either location to serve me with anythng.

I was approved for a loan with 499 % APR. The unfortunate thing is that I am the spouse of an XXXX XXXXXXXX military member. I only recently learned about the Military Lending Act ( MLA ) that caps apr at 36 %. I only found this out by accident because there was an issue with the company stopping my auto-pay ( without my consent ) and then charging me a late fee. I have been paying this loan for a few months now on my pay day as well as an additional lump some I paid early on. I went down a rabbit hole and found out about the MLA. I reached out to the company and told them about the issue. I asked for a copy of the application because I did not remember there being a place where I could check being the spouse of someone that is active-duty, but they refused to send me a copy of the application. At their request, I sent in documents verifying that I a spouse of an XXXX XXXX XXXX member. They have given me the run around and stated that the MLA doesn't protect spouses, only the members themselves. I told them this was incorrect and I did not want to be part of an issue. They further gave me the runaround and said they would " get back to me ''.

After accepting my loan and made my first payment, I attempt to track my interest rate on my great plain account by accessing their website, I noticed that the bi-weekly payments went to interest. The charges became excessive and amounted to only fees outside of the agreed upon amount. I borrowed {$500.00} and have paid back over {$900.00}. The company continues to harass me claiming that I owe them an additional {$2200.00}. for a above the amount that I have already paid back for a {$500.00} loan. Prior to receiving the loan I was not allowed to view the full agreement I 've tried to view the loan agreement at the company 's website but they will not allow me to see agreement I can only view the payment history which. I wish to be released from this fraudulent agreement. I can not phantom that an {$500.00} loan will cost {$2000.00} to repay. This is not a fair deal and I 've been scammed. Since I have already paid more than the amount I originally borrowed I would like them to consider my account paid in full and close my account. I would also like them to make ... corrections to my credit report saying the loan was paid satisfactory.

I was n't able to keep up with payments on the loan ( paying full amount of money loaned to me plus {$55.00} interest bi-weekly ) and was in the process of filing bankruptcy. The loan company ran my check through which was returned non payment to them so they turned it in to the District Attorney 's office for worthless check. this check was for payment of a payday loan which should not be considered a criminal charge. I received a 10 day demand letter to pay the loan in Full {$350.00} plus {$25.00} NSF Charge plus {$120.00} statutory fee ( DA fee ) plus certification fee {$6.00} for a total of {$510.00} by DEMAND LETTER to be paid within 10 days of receipt of the letter. When the creditor submitted the application for the worthless check claim to the DA 's office they stated that they sent me a 10 day notice of payment demand via certified letter but I never received a notice from the creditor ( Island Financial ). The check should not be considered a criminal charge since it was a pay day loan and instead should be a civil charge. I have n't been given proper notice to pay the said debt with additional fees in a short period of time.

I tried to get a loan. When their instant verification system failed, I tried to chat with them to fix the issue. I was kicked off chat 5x. I finally called in and was told that I needed to email in 3 months of bank statements. I did, checking my sent emails to make sure all 3 were attached. I called in again and was told that I only sent in 1, that I needed to send in all 3 again. I did and was told they still only got one. I told them that I checked my sent emails AGAIN, and all 3 were sent. I told them to forget it, that if it was that hard to get a loan from them, I didnt want it. I asked for my information to be deleted and to be unsubscribed from everything. The guy said sure. I KEPT getting emails and calls. I then got an email that my loan had adverse action and they wouldnt give me a loan- after I ASKED it be deleted. Then I went online and unsubscribed AGAIN. I thought it was over, but just this morning, I got ANOTHER email saying that if I didnt take action, my application would be deleted on XX/XX/15. This after Id spoken to a rep asking for everything to be deleted AND unsubscribing online.

During XX/XX/2020 Target Cash Now had approved a loan application claiming they spoke to me on the phone. I have phone records that prove otherwise. The fraudulent loan application contained my stolen identity ( name, address, social security number ) as well as a false or someone elses drivers license. The employment information is false. The email address supplied has been inactive for years. The XXXX XXXX XXXX account specified in the loan application is not mine. I have spoken to Target Cash Now agents multiple times, sent emails with police incident number, FBI IC3 report, FTC ID theft reports. My first email was sent in XX/XX/2020 which was followed by a USPS mail of the same material ( return receipt received ). I have never received a response from them nor have I received the loan number and the loan documents for my investigation into this matter. Each time I call for an investigation update, their agents dont have an update. Since XX/XX/2020, a second set of documents was both emailed and sent by USPS mail during XX/XX/2020 containing my personal investigative findings.

I started the loan on XXXX/XXXX/XXXX and did n't really understand what I had gotten myself into I took the loan out for {$390.00} and they have been taking a payment in the amount of {$110.00} every 2 weeks. I have been contacting the company since XXXX/XXXX/XXXX to get the payoff balance since then. I have called for over 3 weeks. I also asked them to not take any more money out of my account as I was trying to pay it off in because there is no penalty for paying it off early. the answer I get is that the system is down and it still down. Now in the last week and a half they do n't answer and want you to leave a voicemail but do n't return calls. I had to go to the back and pay {$25.00} to get the unauthorized charges after I told them to stop taking money from my account since I was paying the account off. This has a 730 % interest rate. I think that this might be a scam. The systems are down they are able to take money from peoples accounts for the payments. They are still able to start new accounts but they are unable to allow you to pay the account in full.

In and honestly XXXX move I was in desperate need of a loan and I did n't have much time to secure the funds. I blindly took out a loan from XXXX XXXX XXXX for an amount of {$200.00}. The monies were credited to my banking account on XX/XX/XXXX. Since XX/XX/XXXX I have paid XXXX XXXX XXXX a total of {$980.00} with 8 payments still remaining of {$56.00} every two weeks. This means that I will have paid them back in full at a rate of 749.98 % with a monetary value of {$1200.00} on a {$200.00} loan. Since the Inception of this loan I have been informed by a very close friend who is employed by the Attorney General 's office of Pennsylvania The Honorable XXXX XXXX that online /payday/ tribal loans are illegal in the state of Pennsylvania where I reside. To date I have paid the loan back almost five times over the initial amount. In my opinion I feel it a fair resolution to this situation is that the loan be considered paid in full because in reality it has been many times over. Even if I were paying 50 % interest the total amount payback would only be {$300.00}.

These people have harassed me for years!! I believe it's the same people, they just keep changing their fake business name, but when I speak with them I always recognize the voices from before. They're so demeaning and verbally assaulting. They call and say I owe a debt, always, but this time, they claimed if I did not pay the debt over the phone, via credit card or prepaid card, the amount I owe would triple. The " debt '' is never valid, never real. They threaten that a process served would come serve me if I do not pay immediately, but I never get served. The scariest thing is that these people have my address! They've harassed me with countless phone calls and voicemails, they've called all of my family members and frightened them. These people have gotten away with this for years, and I just really hope they can get sued one day for all of the money they've taken from their victims over the years. I've never paid them, but they use scare tactics that I'm sure work for them over and over again, which is why they've been doing it for so long.

On XX/XX/2019, I took out 2 payday loans, one from Bright Lending and one from Green Trust. I have taken payday loans before and did not fully look over the agreements, thinking this one would be similar to ones I'd gotten before. I was dead wrong. The interest rates are criminally high at 674.96 % APR and 674. 99 % APR for each respectively. Also, these two different companies are both located on the same reservation XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, MT XXXX XXXX, so I'm pretty sure this is a scam for tribal payday loans. Basically, I got very sick recently with my XXXX XXXX XXXX and needed money. Looking back now, I don't know how they approved me because I already had out two previous outstanding/unpaid loans. This is over my state 's ( Oklahoma ) limit for the number of loans you can have out. So I don't think they verify anyone 's ability to pay : they're just trying to trap people in long-term, insanely high-interest loans. I'd like to see first if all of this is even legal before I try contacting them to sort anything out. Thanks for your help

I 'm not sure if this is where I make this type of complaint, however, I have been receiving calls threatening me with a lawsuit that I received an online payday loan and never paid it back. I never received the loan at the time and this was 6 years ago. I applied for a loan online, but decided not to accept the terms. I canceled it, but my account was still debited {$99.00}. I went to my bank and they reversed the transaction and issued a new checking account to me. A few years ago, I received threatening calls stating a similar scenario that Legal action was being taken against me for non-payment of a payday loan that turned out to be a scam. During the current call I received, the representative stated to me my full social security number, phone number, birth date, and address. I am afraid I will be a victim of identity theft because after I accused the representative of being a scam artist, he became hostile stating " good luck in court, you 're going to jail. Just wait and see what happens. '' Please let me know what I can do about this!

I called on XX/XX/XXXX to find out what my payoff balance was for my {$600.00} loan and was told that it was {$810.00} and that was totally surprising to me because I've already paid 5 payments of {$130.00} ; my payments are biweekly. I asked why was my payoff balance that high and was told that only {$48.00} was going to the principal and that {$92.00} was going to interest and fees. Initially I thought I was told that my interest rate was 25 % but was shocked by the fact that it was 625 %. I was then told that I could increase my payment amount and that would lower the amount that was owed. I reached out to XXXX XXXX again regarding the extremely high interest and told them that that was against the law in Maryland. I stated that the most that can be charged per year according to your website is 24 %. The representative ( XXXX ) told me that because XXXX XXXX is a part of an XXXX community that our laws does not apply. I really need to pay this off but without the interest rate being lowered, appears it will take almost a lifetime.

Starting receiving calls from out of the blue from this company, XXXX XXXX XXXX, from a guy named XXXX XXXX in XX/XX/XXXX, regarding a payday loan that was supposedly taken out in the amount of {$300.00}, from Riverbend Cash in XXXX, which is now out of business. I asked for written proof of this debt and was sent an email from a XXXX XXXX through XXXX sign, stating that the loan was sold to several different companies, none of which appear to be real companies as I did searches to locate. They want me to sign this. The only way I could get anything in writing was to tell them I would possibly pay them if I got proof. This company also does not appear to be a legitimate company and I have found many spam alerts regarding them. They have threatened to take me to court for fraud and told me I would be charged with a felony. They have called family members harassing them as well. I have told them to take me to court if they feel that it is necessary and to stop calling. Still receiving calls from them, but now from a blocked number.

Due to unfortunate circumstances, ( my grandparents passing away from XXXX and being my sole providers. ) I was desperate and needed help with bills. I do not have a lot of credit to my name and was trying to a loan to help pay for my car insurance. A website took me to BrightLending.com where I was prompted that I was approved for a loan of {$500.00} on XX/XX/2020. I of course unknowingly accepted the loan unaware that the APR rate was 692.2058 % and will be paying 42 payments of {$72.00}. I was charged {$72.00} every Friday out of my check but I realized that every time I paid the {$72.00}, the loan was still in the {$500.00}. I then checked the loan agreement to see the that my rate was so high and at the end of this loan I would have spent {$2900.00} to finish this loan. This loan has caused to me struggle to pay my bills. I have called their customer service and no response. Also previously stated that my rate was 692.2058 %, I read further into my agreement that the fixed rate per year on the loan is 734.0224 %.

I asked them for a copy of my signature to verify it is mine but they don't respond. On XX/XX/XXXX I asked them for my address on the loan to verify I lived there. They said they couldn't give me that for " Security Reasons. '' They did give me access to my account data to verify it is mine and when I entered their key, it came back as " invalid. '' In another email on the XXXX it came back " Blocked. '' I looked at their website and it has a big warning from XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX On XX/XX/XXXX I wrote the Office of the Attorney General in Montana.

I applied for the loan and was approved at the beginning of XXXX ( XX/XX/2021 ) The money was deposited into my account for the total of XXXX into my bank account through direct deposit. I was not informed that the apr would be 499 % Nor was I able to print the fees, and paperwork from the agreement. The gentleman on the line was continually pressuring me to sign while I attempted to read the agreement. When I opened the portal for the loan to see what my monthly payment would be ( I was not informed of that either ) I found out it would be XXXX a month. I wasn't sure why it was so high. I called with the intent to defer the first month and the customer service gentleman then told me my apr was 499 %. When I told him it was outrageous he did not offer any solutions and would not attempt to help me in any way with this. The loan currently before any payments have been made stands at the balance of XXXX. This is set to go up at 499 % each month. There is no way anyone can pay this exorbitant amount.

I applied for a {$1400.00} loan from target cash now. The payments were set up to be deducted every 2 weeks from my bank account and I could pay my loan off or down with no penalties or fees. XX/XX/XXXX was my first payment of {$290.00}. I also paid {$500.00} to my principle therefore lowering down my loan balance. Once the {$500.00} payment was applied they did not remove that amount from my outstanding loan balance. Instead they only took out the {$58.00} from the initial {$290.00} payment leaving a loan balance which they are charging me like 700 % interest on as {$1300.00}. Clearly this is wrong and I have called and emailed with no help. The last time I expressed I wanted it in writing they told me to call their customer service. I have specifically asked them to give me the breakdown via email so I fully understand why they are charging me interest on the wrong balance with bo luck. I feel I have been scammed. Thanks for your help. I can forward email conversations if requested.

I was assured I was approved on Friday and when I called back on Monday, I was again assured that the loan was approved. However, no funds were deposited on Monday XXXX/XXXX/2015. I asked for my bank balance and the loan was denied after giving my bank balance after underwriting was contacted. 1. My loan was approved on Friday. 2. My balance has nothing to do with an underwriters decision from Friday but denied today. 3. As a result of their actions, I am in deeper debit by - {$640.00}. 4. I asked why was n't I informed of this deicision before now? He had no comment. I asked for a review of this decision but I was denied. The manager refused to give me anything other than his first name : XXXX and stated he will send me an email by XXXX. I signed a contract by eform and the loan was approved but the leader refused to issued to loan or pay for the fees resulting in misinforming me.

One of the emails was from Bright Lending/XXXX about an effort to collect a debt. I have no outstanding credit issues that would be in collection. I called Bright Lending and told them I have received an email from them in error and I had no debt in collection.

On XX/XX/2021, I received an email and attachments from them indicating I owed them {$2700.00}. The attached documents include an what looks like a loan form for {$800.00} at 666 % interest, now due. There is a loan document with my name, address, and cell phone number and with no signature. I responded to the email and indicated I would continue to dispute. I did not enter into any agreement with Bright Lending.

I had been looking at my options online for a personal loan but never actually applied for one. The next day I had a flood of emails and text messages from numerous companies. Target Cash Now had sent me a link to see how much I was approved for on XXXXso I clicked on it to see how much the loan would be for not knowing that it would be an actual signature to a loan ... very tricky and not fair. The amount of the loan from them was {$700.00} and the amount owed is currently {$1200.00} as of XX/XX/21 and accruing daily. I called them to explain that I did not apply for this loan and that my banking account is now froze due to fraudulent activity because two companies, including Target Cash Now were involved according to my bank manager. I did make a police report but am still awaiting word on the investigation. The fraudulent activity was the checks sent in were not legitimate. Target Cash Now never asked me any qualifying questions ... income, personal, nothing at all.

On XX/XX/21 Bright Lending deposited {$1000.00} into my bank account for a loan I never applied for. I contacted the company and they stated that I had applied for the loan today. I did not apply for a loan and explained I never signed anything or applied. Furthermore, why would a company deposit anything into my account without verifying my employment or the state I live in? I further explained I was contacting my bank, having that deposit reversed and they would be blocked forever from my bank account. What it seems like to me is that this is their way of trying to make money, depositing unauthorized funds into an account and then charging you a ridiculous amount of interest if that transaction goes unnoticed and/ or spent. Again, I haven't authorized and/ or signed any agreement with them. My bank is handling this and I am also notifying the Attorney General. Makes me wonder how many other people they have done this to. I am also contacting a lawyer.

Good morning, I took out a pay day loan with a company called Bright Lending out of Montana which isXX/XX/XXXX owned for {$500.00} but with all the interest it climbed to {$1800.00}. When I took this loan out I was financially stable but that quickly turned around and I had to ask for a hardship settlement. When I contacted there company with my circumstances they turned me over to a collection company who did allow me to set up a payment plan with me only owing {$910.00}. Today I called the collection company XXXX XXXX to find out why they didn't take my payment and I was told to contact Bright Lending that they no longer was handling my account. I don't understand how you can set up a payment plan with me then not honor it. I feel like I was scammed but then again not because they did lend me {$500.00}. Please advise what I need to do in this situation. Thank you XXXX XXXX XX/XX/XXXX # XXXX Bright Lending- XXXX Email XXXX XXXX

Last thursday XXXX XXXX , I spoke with someone after getting voicemail about debt.. The guy said he was referring the case to supervisor and wanted me to fax over the letter. I said no as it should be in the file since it was their letterhead. I told him that they were harassing me for debt which was paid and if they contacted me again, I will file a formal complaint as I no longer owe the debt for a bout one year.

The company debited my account one day before each agreed payment day, causing my account to overdraw. When I called them to correct the payment dates, the refused to work with me. The loan agreement was NOT available ( link was broken so i never got the agreement ) and when I finally demanded it and got it I saw that they were charging me 674.9825 % interest which amounts to a {$2300.00} loan fee with total payments of {$2800.00} on a {$500.00} loan. Iowa has a maximum loan term of 31 days and a max rate of 337 %. When I mentioned that to them, they told me that the laws don't apply to them. I have already paid the company {$890.00} and when i asked my payoff amount, they stated it was {$560.00}, more than the original loan. I send them a deauthorization notice and notified my bank. I'm also making complaints at the XXXX and the FTC and anywhere else I can think of. These thieves need to brought down.

I received a payday loan in XXXX of 2016. I borrowed {$200.00}. I was sent a contract ostating I had to payback {$68.00} every two weeks. I called a month ago asking about my loan amount and they told I had a second loan which I have no record of and there is no record when I login on their website. They have been charging {$120.00} every two weeks since XXXX. When I asked them to send me a contract where I had borrowed from them injure they sent me a XXXX contract again. I feel I have been taken advantage of because high interest payday loans have been prohibited in North Carolina. I am paying 708.08 % interest. Not to mention they have failed to provide me with a contract and there is no record of a XXXX contract on their site. There is no way you should be making on time payments to accompany and your payment amount is not decreasing nor is your principal decreasing over a years time.

I received a loan in the amount of {$850.00} and by the time the loan is paid in full I will have paid 8 payments of {$270.00} for a total of {$2100.00}. Per the State of Michigan Department of Financial Institutions the organization XXXX XXXX is not licensed to provide loans in the State of Michigan. Since this organization violates state and federal usury laws I do not feel that I am obligated to repay any amount over the principal borrowed which I have already repaid. Despite this organization providing illegal loans I have attempted to contact them to delay a payment 3 days from XX/XX/XXXX to XX/XX/XXXX and have been not only denied but threatened with immediate collection activities if I pay later than XXXX XXXX. on XX/XX/XXXX. This company is threatening to harass me when I am clearly attempting to pay this loan in full despite it being an illegal loan in the State of Michigan.

Filled out an online application with a company called NORTHERN PLAINS FUNDING, I was then sent a series of pre-approval emails ( XXXX ). Opened the emails to find " YOU ARE APPROVED-sign your loan documents for money to be deposited next day ''. I did not sign them right away as I wanted to wait and see if I could cover my bills without having to take out the loan. 2 days later I signed the paperwork electronically and submitted. The following day I get a call from the North Plains Lending saying that they need to do a verification process with me regarding my employment, banking, etc. I asked why they had me sign loan documents before doing this and she said this is our process ... .this is not a good process as they have asked me to sign documents saying I agree to all their crazy terms and to doing business based on a reservation, etc. and then they do n't even have you approved.

On XX/XX/2019, I took out a payday loan from Green Trust. I have taken payday loans before and did not fully look over the agreements, thinking this one would be similar to ones I'd gotten before. I was dead wrong. The interest rates are criminally high at 675 % APR. Basically, I got very sick recently with my XXXX XXXX XXXX and needed money. Looking back now, I don't know how they approved me because I already had out two previous outstanding/unpaid loans. This is over my state 's ( Oklahoma ) limit for the number of loans you can have out. So I don't think they verify anyone 's ability to pay : they're just trying to trap people in long-term, insanely high-interest loans. The more I looked, it seems like this a " tribal payday lending '' scam. I'd like to see first if all of this is even legal before I try contacting them to sort anything out. Thanks for your help

I am a single mom with XXXX children, and I am a XXXX XXXX. I needed money for an emergency. I borrowed {$400.00}. I made my weekly payments faithfully for {$56.00}. They confirmed they received 12 payments of {$56.00} from me. When I called to payoff the loan the payoff amount I was quote was {$440.00}. I only had the loan for approx three months and I was charged over {$1000.00}. When I asked why I was charged so much they said it doesnt matter interest accrued everyday. This is the amount we are legally allowed to charge you. Your payments went towards the interest. It was pointless arguing so I just decided to file a complaint. In addition I never got an email with an attachment on how much my interest is or payoff amount will be. I had to call to get my loan number. No loan documents were given to me at all. Just an email stating I will be getting the funds.

I was told that I was pre-approved for a loan of up to {$1000.00} and when I applied I was approved for {$500.00}. I signed at the prompts and received the money, however I havent been able to speak to anyone about how the money is being taken from my account. The amount I received and the amount that they expect me to pay back is ridiculous and I had no idea until I XXXX them and found the website with the link to log in to the website. I was able to pull up the documents of the agreement and the amount they said they gave me was more than what they gave me and the amount and period they want me to be obligated to them for is crazy. Can someone please help me ... I am a single mom that works hard and try my best to make ends meet, I dont need to be scammed out of the few pennies that I have left over after paying the bills to sustain my family.

I had borrowed {$650.00} in XXXX of 2023. A payment arrangement of {$150.00} every two weeks is taken out by direct deposit. After XXXX months of payments I contacted Bright Lending. I had a previous loan with them that I paid off the year before. I paid that loan off early. If I were to keep making the biweekly payments, I will have paid {$3200.00} by the end. I tried to call and settle the loan. They wouldnt allow me to pay off the loan while there was a pending payment. After that payment processed, my balance increased. I reached out again and they told me I could pay {$750.00} to pay off the loan. I asked if I could split the final payment off, pay half or more now and pay the rest when my next payment would be made. They would not allow that. They are a predatory practice preying on desperate people in this time when many are struggling.

So I took out {$320.00} from northern plains funding and before taking out any money I asked if there was any interest fee they said I did n't have to pay interest if I did something called a pay down. Which is longer term of payments but cheaper price. So instead of paying {$97.00} a paycheck, I would only have to pay {$10.00} a paycheck for a longer amount of time. I 've already paid up to {$320.00} of payments to them and they are still charging me {$97.00} a paycheck. I can not afford this any longer and it 's really beginning to stress me out. They told me I still owe about {$400.00} more! I 'm only XXXX XXXX XXXX and I obviously do n't have a high paying job to be able to pay them over {$700.00} worth of funds. I think that 's a rip off! NORTHERN PLAINS FUNDING should be shut down for misleading me into their schemes!!!

Now I am getting collection agency calls to collect on this same account or rather same date of service, and that is the only Payday Loan I made on this date of service.. phone number XXXX XXXX XXXX and another collection Agency last week from phone number XXXX, XXXX. I explained this account paid in full previously and they always send it to another agency. They not only call my number but have found other people in my family their phone numbers. So I ca n't block them. It was my miss fortune to have to borrow from a PAYDAY loan company but I paid it in full. Now it seems that was not enough. I want them to stop calling me.

I took a loan from " Northern Plains Funding '' for {$500.00}. The monies were credited to my bank account on XX/XX/XXXX. From XX/XX/XXXX, I paid a total to them of {$1500.00}. On XX/XX/XXXX, when inquiring about my loan balance, they " offered '' to refinance the " current principal balance '' of {$490.00}. I agreed, with the intention of lowering the bi-weekly payment amount. So from XX/XX/XXXX to XX/XX/XXXX, with bi-weekly payments of {$150.00}, only {$6.00} had been applied to the principal. Since XX/XX/XXXX, I have paid a total of {$1200.00}. That brings the total amount paid to {$2700.00} on a {$500.00} loan. I have since realized the online/payday/tribal loans are illegal in the State of PA where I reside. I have obviously paid this loan in full 5 times over- plus some.

I explained this is almost illegal and that I would be reporting them. They sent me an email stating that because it is a tribal loan that they have a right and I signed off it.

I was in a bad spot I needed to hire a lawyer. So I looked online for loans. And I found this one. It was for {$500.00}. I knew it was high interest. I expected to have to pay 130 something dollars a month for a year for a {$500.00} loan. Which I know sounds terrible. But I needed the money to pay for a lawyer. It was an emergency. The first payment came out from my checking account. I get paid every two weeks. So I figured the next payment wasnt due for a month. But when I got my next check it was taken out of that as well. So they are taking almost {$300.00} a month for 12 months for a {$500.00} loan. I cant afford that. I ended up having to close my checking account. And Im pretty sure what they are doing is illegal. Definitely a predatory lending company

I received a payday loan from West River Cash for the amount of {$350.00} and after 1 payment of {$120.00} and another 3 for {$100.00} that the principal only went down to {$340.00}. The representative informed me to pay in full it would be over {$400.00} after paying them {$430.00}. They have me on an 18 month repayment cycle of {$100.00} a paycheck. The representative could n't answer why I would be paying roughly {$1800.00} for a {$350.00} loan. The representative, XXXX, said I have been making the minimum payments whereas the {$120.00} payment only affected the principal by XXXX cents. They only thing XXXX mentioned to me was speaking to an account manager and I did n't want to receive any abuse or harassment of any kind by an account manager.

I took out a loan on XX/XX/22. I borrowed {$1000.00}. This place is taking {$360.00} each month out of my XXXX check. They have taken {$730.00} already. There is supposedly no penalty to pay the loan off early. However, the website lists my principal balance as {$930.00}. And the payoff amount is {$1200.00}!!! Meanwhile, NO ONE ANSWERS the phone at this company. I can not pay my bills with this place taking half of my income. I only receive {$840.00} each month. I want and need to be out of this situation. I am not paying this place three times the amount I borrowed and then some simply because they refuse to accept my calls. I borrowed {$1000.00}. Technically I should only owe {$300.00}, or less. But I will pay the {$930.00}. Only the {$930.00}.

I was in a pretty desperate situation and took out a loan for {$1500.00} with target cash now. I had previously had a loan with them and the loan payment was quite a bit less. So, to help pay my bills I took out a second loan with them. For a loan of {$1500.00}, I now have a payment of {$490.00} every two weeks. I will be paying back approximately {$8000.00} on a {$1500.00} loan. This is putting me into a worse situation than I was in before and I am desparate to get some relief and be able to get current and stay on top of my monthly bills. I dont know what to do to get myself out of my current situation, but I feel like I am so far under water that my situation will keep getting worse. Please let me know what I can do to solve this situation.

I foolishly in desperation took a payday loan with an online tribal payday loan company. I borrowed {$500.00} and the interest rate and payments are astronomical. I live in South Carolina where the limit is {$15.00} per {$100.00} borrowed. On a {$500.00} loan I should have to payback {$570.00}. I have mailed my first payment of {$140.00} as I revoked this company 's ability to debit my bank account. My remaining balance should be {$430.00}. The payment of nearly {$300.00} per month is excessive, predatory and pure greed. I will pay {$50.00} every two weeks beginning XX/XX/XXXX until the {$430.00} is paid off. This company calls and emails me endlessly. It's predatory and greedy and takes advantage of individuals who feel they have no options.

I called on XX/XX/XXXX to ask if I could make arrangements to lower the payment amount and extend the payments out and was laughed at. The customer service representative was foreign and would not repeat his name, but said " What do you expect when you take our loan ''. He said they will continue to take payments out and it id my fault for having bad credit. This loan has a 400 plus percent interest rate. I realize I am at fault for ever having the XXXX to take it out, but to be talked to like that .... I wish these businesses were not allowed to even operate. To charge such outrageous interest and then speak to customers like that- they have full access to your account and will make zero effort to help if you are facing a hardship.

We have attempted to access our loan documents multiple times. They havent been available to download, our online portal says there are no documents available each time we try. We logged in and our balance unexpectedly jumped from XXXX to XXXX over night. We called and they blamed the jump on a potential technical difficulty. And blamed our inability to access loan documents on a technical difficulty as well. When voicing how concerning it was that a technical difficulty is changing our loan balance over night like that they said we are being charged aprox. 10-11 dollars in interest A DAY. Something we didnt even fathom was possible! But those pesky technical difficulties are what they're hiding behind.

Predatory lending practices. The fees were outrageous, in the neighborhood of {$5000.00} on top of a {$2000.00} loan. I made a larger payment last month ( {$1000.00} ) in an effort to reduce the amount of interest being charged. I called them this month, and they indicated that I did n't have another payment due until XXXX . Ostensibly, they interpreted the large payment as several payments in advance in an attempt to tempt me to continue the loan, not pay again for several months, at the same time accruing the predatory interest fees. Under the circumstances I just paid it all off, causing much harm to my financial condition but it was more favorable than paying the principal amount several times over.

Each month they pull out about {$110.00} in fees. I have paid off my amount for the {$450.00} and more, to have fees this high has left me more in debt and they take advantage of that. I am being threatened fees if I do not pay. They have taken payments out each month for {$110.00} starting since XXXX. They took two payments out monthly. They are considered a sovereign nation and are a tribe doing the loans. I believe they are unlicensed. I am trying to get the fees I have paid back due to outrageous amounts.

That is a 699.9856 % interest rate. I've just learned that the maximum amount APR in the state of Minnesota is 390 %.

I received a loan from Northcash and was not disclosed the interest rate, only the finance charge on the phone. This was a minimal amount. My signature was forged through electronic email. I asked repeatedly to pay the loan in full, which continued to increase. I researched the company and found out this is a payday loan, which in the state of NJ is illegal, however this company claims to be a Native tribe on Sovereign land, which if the consumer does not agree to the terms or to continue the loan, it must be cancelled. Once the information was received, my identity was compromised which resulted in numerous bank fees and credit holds and issues.

In addition, I requested how did they receive my information. The rep provided me with a phone number I use to have 10+ years ago and an email I had 15+ years ago. Under no circumstances did I ever request, authorize or consent for this loan.

I took out a {$500.00} loan with this company and my monthly payment were {$230.00}. I have made 5 payments to them for this amount which means I have paid the loan off twice and they are still trying to collect funds from me. I can not find in any of my personal records what the terms of this loan are. I assumed I would pay {$230.00} until it was paid off, but they continue to collect money. I dont know what the interest rate is or anything. I am filing this complaint because I was never provided with a copy of the terms and conditions for this loan. I would not have accepted it if it meant I would need to pay it back over and over again.

On XX/XX/2018- I was loaned {$600.00} via online by Bright Lending. The payments are extremely expensive and due to the recent Hurricane Michael- I am unable to continue making these high interest bi-weekly payments. After researching my options, I discovered that Section 7-4-2, subsection B ( 2 ) of the Georgia Code states : Where the principal amount involved is {$3000.00} or less, such rate shall not exceed 16 percent per annum simple interest on any loan, advance, or forbearance to enforce the collection of any sum of money. The current interest rate on my loan is 524.9996 % - a significantly higher interest rate.

I signed an agreement showing the payments and payment dates. The loan was to be paid in full with the last payment being XXXX/XXXX/16. That is what was stated on the loan agreement that I electronically signed. I checked my account on XXXX/XXXX/16 in the morning and the loan agreement on the site still stated XXXX/XXXX/16 as the last payment. By later that afternoon the agreement on the site was changed to show the last payment is XXXX/XXXX/16. They changed the agreement without my knowledge, consent or any notification. I feel this is at the least morally and ethically wrong, if not legally wrong. Can you help me?

A company called North Cash will not stop harassing me about a supposed loan they gave someone - but not me. I 've never had ( or needed ) a loan. I 've mentioned that they need to stop contacting me and that they should abide by the Fair Debt Collection Act, which requires them to stop contacting me because clearly they gave a loan to someone who was n't me. I have spoken to the police about this, yet North Cash refuses to stop calling me on my cell phone and at my office.

I made over {$600.00} worth of payments before I realized that their practice of requiring the use of automatic ACH transactions was illegal, that the interest rate was more than the allowed interest rate for Iowa payday loan laws and that they were not licensed in the state of Iowa. I have contacted my bank to stop the ACH transactions but Northcash is harassing me and calling all hours of the night and sending collection letters.

I took out a {$900.00} loan to pay the IRS to stop them from taking the next step toward collection. What I was not expecting was it costing men {$3600.00} for that loan amount. When I called thinking the loan should be paid off I was informed that I get charged DAILY interest. They do identify themselves as a XXXX tribe under XXXX XXXX in Montana. This is outright fraud. No loan should cost you triple of the amount you borrow. I have made 3 payments of {$400.00} which totals {$1200.00}. They take it directly from my banking account.

I checked my balance today and was shocked to see that my current balance is {$280.00}. With about at least 9 payments so far, it has done very little to pay down the balance which means payment has been going towards the finance charge. I have paid over {$500.00} since taking out the loan which should have already paid for the loan plus interest. I believe this to be predatory lending.

The payment is usually once every 2 weeks but they charged me twice in one day yesterday. What's more unsettling is they never contacted me to do so and they changed their name to XXXX XXXX which I wasn't aware of. If you go to their website www.cashadvancwnow.com it would state that they changed their name to XXXX.Very shady loan business

This company charged 599 % interest, which my uncle, who is an attorney in Ohio, states is against federal and state law. I have contacted the company several times and offered to pay back the principal only but they just keep saying that they are XXXX owned and not beholden to state or federal law but court cases say otherwise. It seems this company is subverting the law to fleece people out of ungodly interest rates. You guys need to act to protect consumers from this shark lenders.

I took a {$500.00} loan out with Northcash in XXXX 2015. I originally set up payments that would take longer to payoff but decided that I wanted to change to the shorter term. When I called them approximately 2 weeks later to change it, I was told I could not change it therefore I have already paid {$1900.00} on a {$500.00} loan. They take {$130.00} every 2 weeks. I want them to close my acct and consider it paid in full since I tried to have my terms shortened and they refused ....

This loan # XXXX was included in my bankruptcy, which was discharged XX/XX/2020. I have told the representative this, my attorney has contacted them and told them the same thing. However, they keep calling for payment. The original loan amount was {$700.00}. The accrued interest has driven this balance much higher now. I have no intention on paying a debt that was discharged in federal bankruptcy court. Im pretty sure the pursuit of collection, violates federal law.

Northern plains funding is the payday loan company. I borrowed a loan from them for {$200.00}. The yearly rate is 779.54 %. The financed charge is {$1200.00}. By time I pay this loan off it will be {$1400.00}. I only borrowed {$200.00}. This is truly criminal and abusive and taking advantage of the consumer. Again I only borrowed {$200.00}. This need to be looked into. So far I paid back as of today {$160.00}. This company is a loan shark that need to be investigated.

This decision has come to the observation of the type of financing and payment in installments for each month. It is not possible for a simple {$900.00} loan to generate 10 payments of {$460.00} each month, creating a debit of {$4600.00}. There is no way in the world to understand and interpret that.
